Future wireless communication systems should be operating mainly, if not completely, on burst data services carrying multimedia traffic.The need to support high-speed burst traffic has already posed a great challenge to all currently available air-link technologies based either on TDMA or CDMA.The first generation CDMA technology has been used in both 2G and 3G mobile cellular standards and it has been suggested that it is not suitable for high-speed burst-type traffic. There are many problems with the first generation CDMA technology, such as its low spreading efficiency, interference-limited capacity and the need for precision power control, etc... 'The Next Generation Technologies' will offer first-hand information on how to make use of various innovative technologies to implement the next generation CDMA technology. As an all-in-one reference for telecommunications engineers, advanced R & D personnels, undergraduate and postgraduate students, this book is must-read material. Addresses various important issues about the next generation CDMA technologies as the major air-link technology for beyond 3G wireless applications. Covers topics from next generation CDMA system modelling to analytical methodology, starting with the basics and progressing to advanced research topics. Contains many new and previously unpublished research results. Introduces many innovative CDMA technologies such as DS/CC-CDMA, OS/CC-CDMA, space-time complementary coding CDMA, M-ary CDMA, optical complementary coded CDMA, etc.

QoS in Integrated 3G Networks offers you clear descriptions of the factors governing quality in integrated third generation mobile networks, dealing with issues arising from both fixed and mobile systems, and their protocols. Leading-edge technologies, including WCDMA, cdma2000, and GPRS are covered comprehensively and considerable attention is devoted to features of specific application types likely to be run over the integrated network. The book provides you with expert guidance in estimating response times across a network and identifying which part of a 3G network is responsible for any reported QoS (quality of service) problems. This unique, hands-on resource shows you the way different parts of an integrated 3G mobile network affect quality. It offers a better understanding of the trade-off between quality of service and the usable capacity of the network, the best applications to use for multimedia applications, and how to handle quality problems.

In this book, the author addresses technologies that are being used in emerging cellular markets. These include GSM/EGPRS and CDMA which are being deployed at a rapid pace, while technologies such as UMTS (3G)/ HSPA (3.5G) which have started to find a place in these high growth markets, are also considered. The book examines other technologies including LTE (3.9G) which have already moved out of research labs into the commercial world. 2G-CDMA is widely used, while further developments, e.g. CDMA2000 are also finding acceptance in the commercial arena. IMS/Convergence is increasingly popular all over the world; UMA, which is deployed mostly in North America; and DVB which is gaining worldwide popularity, especially in South Asia, are all reviewed. Each chapter discusses a different technology and is structured into three parts. The technology is examined at an overview level, first explaining what the technology is and then considering the technical features of the technology. The chapter concludes by looking at the planning/implementation aspects of the technology. Key Features: Useful for all cellular industry professionals as provides an overview of the currently deployed technologies in mass scale, and the forthcoming technologies that are expected to make an impact in the future, such as 4th Generation Cellular Networks. One of the first books on the market to encompass all the major cellular technologies, as well as considering the design and implementation perspective. Wireless Technology will play a key role in uplifting the economies of the Emerging countries globally. Ashok Chandra, Wireless Advisor to Govt. of India
